John, I hope you’ll enjoy reading the fall issue of Solutions, the quarterly member newsletter. Click here to browse this latest issue to read about the innovation, science, economics and unique partnerships our members make possible.

You can also find some of the stories and more in our newly-updated digital magazine, Vital Signs. For example, check out this fall’s cover story “Your package has arrived.” Huge ships that carry everything from steel to sneakers across the oceans run on the world’s dirtiest fuel. EDF is working to cut the industry’s pollution before it’s too late.

Other stories include:

• Global Hunt for a Hidden Climate Threat: Methane is speeding up climate change — but to stop it, we first need to find it. An EDF affiliate, MethaneSAT, has a satellite launching early next year that will locate and quantify methane pollution, arming the public with high precision data we can use to hold companies and governments accountable. 
• Clearing the Air: An all-female team of health workers is helping EDF and partners tackle air pollution in India. These health activists are counseling 40,000 households on ways to prevent indoor air pollution, which globally affects more women than men.
• From Sea to Table: EDF is advancing science and driving support for a sustainable aquaculture industry in the U.S. — progress for both people and ecosystems.
• Green Living: Gearing up for the winter gift-giving season? Here are 5 ways you can make your online shopping better for the environment.

You can support this critical work and help fight climate change by donating to EDF’s Fall Membership Drive by October 31. You’ll unlock a $2-for-$1 match and triple your impact to ensure a vital Earth — one with clean air and a safer climate. EDF members also receive a hard copy of Solutions in the mail as one member benefit.

The results we achieve for the climate and our environment depend on members like you.

Thank you for standing with us,
